Day + Night 8: Jet Ski + Rumours Friday

We found a water sport place that carries the kind of jet ski Annie prefers so we returned there so she can fulfill her summer wish of driving a jet ski. The place is called Force8 Watersports and the guy working there Tony is super awesome and friendly. Annie rented a sea doo jet ski and I took photos and videos while she was out in the water. First Tony talked her about the jet ski and made sure she was comfortable and knew everything then she was on her own. She started of slow to warm up first, but then later she was driving that thing around like mad. I was definitely impressed by her jet ski skills. After her drive, Tony let us use the beach beds which was super awesome! 🙂 We talked to him for a while about travels, his and ours. It was around that time that my energy started dropping, and because of this we ended up staying there chilling out all afternoon. After the beach we went back to the apartment …

Day + Night 3: Beach, Sushi & Cocktails

Previous Posts: Day 1 – Night 1 w/ Miss Anna R. Day 2: Part 1: Mediterranean Day 2: Part 2: Molos & Marina Night 2: Breeze 10 Year Anniversary We slept in, had our regular large coffees and oatmeal for breakfast on the balcony at the apartment, and we started chatting….a chat that was still going on 4 hours later. We had to stop talking for a second so we can get out the door and get to the beach. We picked out new bikinis for this beach day and since it was already getting late, we decided to walk over to a nearby beach. The rule was new beach every day so we continued with that. Annie said it was her wish to go jet skiing this summer and she hasn’t done that back in Ohio, so I told her not to worry about it, she can do that here. After the beach we went to our apartment to shower and get ready for the evening. We walked over to the nearby restaurant again for …

Night 2: Breeze 10 Year Anniversary

It was Saturday night, but not just any Saturday. All the Summer Clubs were having their last end of the summer season celebration parties. I got in touch with a friend of mine and asked her what she was doing and she got back to me later saying she is heading to Breeze, so we decided we would do that too. What I didn’t know at the time was that Breeze was having their 10 Year Anniversary celebration that night too. It was time to get ready, do our make up and pick out our dresses. I did Annie’s make up which took some time and then my own. I wanted to wear the dress on the right, but in the evening I got bloated again, so later I picked the dress on the left instead. After we got ready, we walked over to Breeze which was very close to our apartment. We were in VIP section which is really the best place to be at here. Both of us made new friends that night which …

Music: Women of Wanderlust

Good Evening from Cyprus Everyone!!!! ☀ ☀ ☀ As you probably already know there are 2 things I love in this World with passion, the World itself & Music & I couldn’t possibly live without either. The best thing ever is when these 2 are combined 🙂 It’s such perfection for any Wanderluster! Well this evening I was chatting with Miss Mirre Oost from Mirre Op Reis & she shared an awesome new song with me that she just came across. But before I share this beautiful song with you & its lyrics, let me just share a little brief 2 second history of how the 2 of us met. So this is our little backstory: We met right before we jumped out of a plane for the first time with our awesome little group in beautiful Empuriabrava, Spain in May & the rest as they say is history, instant friends! 🙂 Here are our videos below. The rush of adrenaline is unreal, best feeling for sure. My highlight of 2015 definitely! 🙂 Now as Winter …

Day 1 – Night 1 w/ Miss Anna R.

Hey guys, I’m still here! 🙂 I got sick recently & just couldn’t focus to write anything, but I’m all good now. Actually the reason why I got sick was because 1. I didn’t have my daily fruit & veggie smoothies at the Airbnb apt by the sea & 2. We did a lot in a very short amount of time as there was no time to waste….& now I’m about to let you know all the shenanigans we got up to. I went over to pick up Annie from the Larnaca  International Airport. I haven’t seen her in 4 years & we’ve known each other for a decade now. The airport pick up was a surprise 🙂 I actually got emotional when I saw her, crazy! Had a few tears of joy stream down my face, I couldn’t help it. We went over to our Airbnb apt first to drop off our luggage & then we checked out the beach below our apt. Little beach below the apt My Airbnb Room above 🙂 We went out for a coffee …

4 Hours of Water Sports followed by 1 Amazing Spanish Lunch!

I was super excited for the second day of our A Different Barcelona tour because we had Water Sport activities on our schedule. This was one of the main reasons why I picked this tour! The itinerary said that we would try out one of the following water sport activities: Paddle Surfing, Kayaking or Sailing. I wanted to try out sailing. Our lovely tour guide picked us up with our tour bus up from our hotel early in the morning and we headed toward the Barcelona Olympic Port. We arrived at Vela Barcelona where we were about to try not 1 but 4 different Water Sport activities, each lasting 1 hour long! I was completely insanely excited about this as I love water sports and generally being in water. The water at the time (beginning of May) was still on the cold side, but we were provided with awesome wet suits. As I predicted, I was horrible at paddle surfing. Balancing on that board was a challenge for me. I managed to stand up a couple of times within …

Catamaran Sailing Party in Costa Brava

What do you get when you combine Travel Bloggers & Unlimited Sangria together? Tons of fun! One of the fun pre TBEX tours was a 3 hour Catamaran cruise of Costa Brava’s beautiful shoreline and I managed to secure a spot for myself for this fun adventure at sea. On April 30th about 100 Travel bloggers departed from Lloret de Mar for the Catamaran cruise.  We had an open bar, a lunch bbq and snorkel equipment all provided for us during the tour. There was non-stop awesome party music playing on the boat and we all had a big dance party at one point. Here are some photos and a video from this fun group adventure 🙂 Making new friends 🙂 We stopped by this beautiful secluded beach and of course I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to not jump in for a quick swim. The water was cold, but after about 5 minutes, you don’t feel anything, so it was quiet refreshing. My new friends Tara from Hippie Hits the Road and Claire from The Green Geekette joined …
